last night i got them. and the best part is i shot them with T shot ( my goose load i know) we(dad my 13 year old brother and i) only had 1 box of 4s and 3 boxes of T shot so dad took 10 rounds of the 4s i took three of the 4s and some T shot and my brother the rest of the 4s since he has never killed a duck. after three flocks of woodies came in and my brother missed the last flock 3 times a shot once and dropped a drake which made my brother only more upset . the next 2 that came in he dropped both of them with 2 shots which made us all happy. the next two that came in is when i killed them both in one shot. Okay notice here that i now have 3 woodies, were only allowed two a day and my brother already has his limit and now i have one over. at this moment i am yelling at our dad across the swamp and am asking him how many woodies i was relieved when he said 1. i told him not to shoot any more of that species. any way i killed a drake mallard after that. it was a good hunt!

Re: 2 woodies 1 shot

That's what's referred to as a "Scotch Double". As opposed to a "double" where you take two birds in two consecutive shots, or a "triple": three birds with three shots.

The best way to get a "scotch double" is to let your partner shoot first. When the birds flare their paths cross and they bunch up and scatter in a way that gives you a better chance at hitting two, or more, birds with one shot.

Congrats on a hunt that you'll probably remember for a long time. cool.gif
